For Honor Year 10 Season 1: Glory
The first season in For Honor Year 10, Glory, is all about celebrating a decade of battle in Heathmoor, highlighting some of the most memorable moments of gameplay. After the events of Year 9, Heathmoor lives under the stifling peace imposed by Guljin and her Khatuns. Refusing to submit, The Knight Gryphon seeks to bring down Guljin’s peace, invoking legendary Heroes of the past and telling tales of their glory. He takes on the mantle The Scorching Herald, donning a fiery griffon-inspired armor forged to show his true potential. Through tales of legendary battles past, he sparks a desire for glory in Heathmoor and rekindles the cycle of war once more.
The Scorching Herald Legendary Skin includes a voiceover rework and a never-before-seen permanent visual effects that feel powerful, unique, and impossible to miss in-game. To celebrate this level of Skin realization in For Honor, the Tales of Gryphon bundle is now available, and includes:
- The Hero Gryphon
- The Scorching Herald Legendary Hero Skin
- 14-day Champion status
- 6 scavenger crates
For one week, starting on March 12, Gryphon will be free to play during the Hero Trial.
Arena of Echoes Game Mode
A limited-time game mode, the Arena of Echoes is available now through April 2. In it, two players are assigned to a boss’s team, and square off against two other teams in a 3v3v3 match. For each enemy boss your team kills, your team receives a temporary Shield; however, while you can revive your teammate, you cannot revive the boss if they are killed. The first team to win three rounds is the victor. This event is linked to a limited-time event leaderboard that scores you based on event-specific gameplay. All Year 10 events will feature an event leaderboard.
